As long as there were real box office stars starring, the produced products could still be Good quality guaranteed; Crassus vs. Gracchus debate in the Senate seems to be a fierce confrontation between dictatorship and democracy, but don't forget that in Rome, citizens have democracy, and Spartacus is only hanged on the cross. Citizens (Gracchus) can compromise with pirates, lavish and lustful corrupt lives for the sake of democracy, while dictators have loyalty to Rome and order. There is also a homosexual code in the film
